The Jews & Its History In The Caribbean Basin 1450-1850 Period Exploration World History Encyclopedia
This is very well-written & a useful source for information on the Caribbean Jews.
The story of the wandering Jew is played out again in the New World. Spanish and Portugal Royalty both had the church pushing them to rid their countries of Jews. The Monarchs did not need much of a push. They immediately issued a decree to have all the Jews leave or convert.
In 1492, Columbus was getting ready to sail to the East. In fact, Jews helped finance the sailing. A Jew was the navigator of Columbus' ships. In turn, the Jewish navigator was the first European to set foot in the New World. Columbus landed in the Caribbean, thus started the entry of Jews to The Caribbean Basin. Those Jews led to the history of the Jewish presence in The Caribbean Basin.
